  • There are Ghosts in the machine.

    Ghost peppers, AKA bhut jolokias. For pepper heads (this being a point Jason and I have in common, unlike politics) the quest for a generation was a pepper hotter than habenero. The bhut jolokia (knicknamed "ghost" because of the shape) meets the challange with ease. I was wondering how long they would take to hit the shelves.



    Mass market, $3.95

    Some more on the pepper.


    One of these days I am going to tour the Mrs. Renfro factory in Ft Worth. Maybe they give out free samples.

      No. It is manufactured in Ft Worth Texas, but I saw it in a Supermarket ad in St Louis. It may still be a specialty item, but it is mass market, available through pepper/salsa outlets and some stores.

      Also, they have a website. http://www.renfrofoods.com/SearchbyM...&BrName=Renfro

        They have Renfro's in Boston supermarkets. Not sure about this specific one though.

            Cool. Pleased to be of service.

            If you like heat, try this old faithful. Great flavor and nose running heat.
